In order to improve your English, you and your classmates must decide to attend one of the summer camps listed below. Take a careful look at each of them, think about some of the good and bad points and choose one.

Prompt: Write compare and contrast essay about 'Camp Big Apple', 'Ranch West Camp' 'Head Start Splash'.

Compare and Contrasting Camps
          My group Hyun Ji, Yun Ji, and I compared and contrasted 'Ranch West Camp' with another camp, which is 'Camp Big Apple'. However there were three options: Camp Big Apple, Ranch West Camp, and Head Strat Splash. We talked about why we all chose Ranch West to go. We talked freely so we had many new ideas. Also Mr. Reardon and we discussed about this topic, so it was much more easier to write this essay. I liked this topic because I can compare and contrast those camps with camp GLPS(Global Leadership Program for Students) which I belong. As Camp Big Apple and Ranch West camp have different names, they will have differences, and similarities.
          To compare two camps there is one point that both camps are same: they go out door activities. This is good for students because if they need to rest, they can rest by experiencing new things. if we go to Camp Big Apple, we can do city tour, go to museums, and go to Broadway show and if we go to Ranch West Camp, we do horse back riding, river rafting, hiking, canoeing, and mountain biking.          To contrast Camp Big Apple and Ranch West camp I have two points. There are different because students live at different places while they are joining those two camps. Moreover, their studying styles are different. In Camp Big Apple they study intensively in math and vocabulary. This program is good for students because math and English is really important for us but we will get bored quickly. In contrast, when we go to Ranch West camp, we can select what subject we want to learn. Also we can experience new things that we never did in urban communities. Even though if we can select subject that we want to study, we cannot learn other subjects that we really need to study.
          Camp Big Apple and Ranch West camp are similar because they have outdoor activities and also they are diffferent because students stay at different places when they join two camps, and their studing styles are different. If I can go to one of this camp after GLPS camp, I will still go to Ranch West camp because I want to experience a life in rural Canada.
